Gne management will be well aware of the constant use of Non branded vehicles ( re X7 ) and no Doubt they'll have a plan in place.
6024 is one if the better ones now....
6041 is very sluggish and on inclines and is about the worst... but tbh they are all having problems at the moment. Even 571 and 572 are catching on, 572 still VOR at chester.
Let's just hope the management do have a plan with replacements or changes to the service (and prove people wrong)
